    The paper extends the work [Commun. Pure Appl. Math. 59, No.~11, 1639--1658 (2006; Zbl 1117.35049)] of \textit{S. Ibrahim, M. Majdoub} and \textit{N. Masmoudi}, where the well-posedness of the Cauchy problem for the equation \(u_{tt}-\Delta u+ue^{u^2}=0\) in \(\mathbb R\times\mathbb R^2\) was demonstrated under the assumption \[ \tfrac{1}{2}\int _{\mathbb R^2}(| u_1| ^2+| \nabla u_0| ^2+e^{u_0^2}-1)<2\pi \] on the energy of the initial data \(u_0, u_1\). In the case of radially symmetric initial data, the author proves the existence of a unique smooth solution of the above problem for all time without the above restriction on the initial data.
